This is from The Love Family Historical and Genealogical Quarterly, Vol II, No. 4, p. 8, July 1955. Thomas Love, Muscle Shoals, Colbert Co., wed Sally Colbert by 1785. Also, from above source, but Vol II, No. 2, p. 5, and noted as Some Loves in Goodspeed's "Memoirs of Mississippi" -- which was 2 volumes issued in Chicago in 1891, but now out of print (and this entry was apparently not indexed): Thomas Love, I:64, "Loyalist," with a loyalist brother of General Andrew Pickens of the S.C. militia in the Revolution, were large landholders in the Chickasaw Indian Domain as early as 1784? His sons Isaac, Henry, Slone, Ben, Samuel, Bill and Robert, in the area of Holly Springs and Pontotoc, were guides for the U.S. Army, trusted counselors of the Indian chiefs as interpreters for the government in making treaties and were prosperous slave holders until the tribe removed to the Indian Territory in 1837. Love County, Oklahoma is in memory of the name. This is not my Love line,! but may help others. Sara Bowers --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!? SBC Yahoo!

Thanks, Sara! Does anyone here know anything about Mr. Pickens? I don't remember seeing that name in my Chickasaw studies.
